Blackburn Rovers 1/1 to beat Derby in Saturday’s Championship matchup

Competition: Championship

Market: Blackburn Rovers win

Odds: 1/1 @ Bet 365

Looking to extend on their bright run of form heading into December, Blackburn will host a struggling Derby County on Saturday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, arguably enjoying their brightest run of form, Blackburn have their sights set on mounting a shock play-off charge this season. In their opening 19 Championship matches this year, they have recorded eight wins, three draws, and eight defeats, scoring 26 and conceding 27 in return. With a points tally of 27, the Rovers open the weekend in 11th and are four points adrift of climbing into the top-six. As for their recent run of results, winning their last three matches on the bounce and also winning four of their last five, it should also be noted that Blackburn have won their last three straight matches on home soil.

As for the visitors, continuing to show some glaring inconsistencies, Derby find themselves in a battle in the bottom half of the Championship standings. In their 19 matches this season, they have recorded six wins, seven draws, and six defeats, scoring 20 and conceding 25 in return. With a points tally of 25 and opening the weekend down in 14th, the Whites are now six points adrift of the play-offs. As for their recent run of results, winning just one of their last four Championship appearances, it should also be noted that Derby have lost each of their last four matches on the road and they have failed to record a single strike on that losing run.
